District 1020 Conference (Inverness)


Friday has come around, after seeing President Ian and Joan off at Edinburgh Airport would you believe we are back up in Inverness this time for my friend DG Alasdair Seale's Conference District 1020 Scotland South. We have arrived in the Headquarters Hotel which is the Drumossie on the outskirts of Inverness with the main conference taking place in Eden Court Theatre. Friday evening we were wined and dined before attending a superb concert by The West Enders an amazing act from London who entertained us with songs from the West End Musicals and more. Saturday was equally as good with a great conference session throughout the day with the principle speaker being Rt Hon Michael Portillo who was highly entertaining and a wonderful figurehead for his chosen charity DebRA. The weekend entertainment culminated with a ball in The Thistle Hotel with three different bands in three areas of the hotel. Sunday rounded off the great weekend with a final conference session and lunch on a boat cruise on Loch Ness. A great weekend of fun and fellowship, thank you all in District 1020 for giving us a weekend to remember.
